KARACHI: The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is expected to take a major decision on the remaining eight Pakistan Super League (PSL) Season 10 matches in the next 48 hours, sources told Geo News on Sunday.
This development came a day after the PSL administration started working on a plan to resume PSL 10 matches following a ceasefire between Pakistan and India.
The sources added that matches would be played in Rawalpindi and Lahore, whereas the final of the showpiece event would be played in Lahore’s Gaddafi Stadium.
However, it is expected that the upcoming matches would not be attended by foreign players “due to their international schedule”, and the PSL franchises would resume matches with local players, they added.
The sources revealed that the PSL administration needed to complete its season due to financial matters.
A day ago, the PSL franchises were asked to keep foreign players in Dubai, signalling the resumption of the league.
It was learnt that a plan was being considered to gather all teams in Islamabad, and the remaining matches are likely to be played at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium.
The PCB had announced the indefinite postponement of the remaining eight matches of the PSL Season 10 in light of the deteriorating regional security situation.
The postponement came when the PSL 10 was in its final stage, with only eight matches remaining.
After 27 matches, Quetta Gladiators, already qualified for the playoffs, led the points table with six wins, two losses, and one no result from nine matches.
Karachi Kings are in second place with 10 points, having secured five wins and three losses in eight matches. Defending champions Islamabad United sit in third position, with 10 points, following five wins and four losses from nine games.
Lahore Qalandars are in fourth place with nine points, having secured four wins, four losses, and one no-result. Peshawar Zalmi are in fifth position with eight points from four wins in nine matches.
Multan Sultans have been eliminated from playoff contention after securing only one win and suffering eight defeats in their nine matches.
